Beware! Not All Garbage Disposals Are Created Equal

What are the common signs that your garbage disposal is not performing properly? If your kitchen sink runs slow or continuously stops up, the most common cause of this is food particles not being ground up small enough to wash out of your pipes the first time or is sticking to the blades as a result of this. What causes this? Your blades have corroded over time being exposed to water and moisture. Your blades are not close enough to grind everything small enough. Do you have a foul odor that lingers from your kitchen sink area? One tip is to grind ice cubes down your disposal to clean away the particles sticking to your blades. If your garbage disposal hums when you turn it on or doesn’t turn on at all, it could be a result of a jamming due to the blades not grinding the particles small enough to pass through the strainer and wash out of the pipes.

Our own top-of-the-line garbage disposals, the Piranha, solve all those problems and start with a 5-year full replacement warranty!!! Why, you ask? Well, they are all stainless steel and NOT galvanized so the garbage disposal does not rot out and the teeth do not get ground down rendering them ineffective. The cutting teeth are even much closer together so everything gets ground up small and can wash through your pipes freely. We carry several different models for your individual needs.
